We've got our flights booked, hotel booked for London. Got a nice gov't rate on that.

Now we're working on lodging for Paris, then Rome. We're going to do airbnb for both cities.

Apparently, the place to stay in Paris is around Le Marais, 3rd arrondissement. This has been gleaned from reddit.

Hey that place I sent you is next door to this. Just saw this story coincidentally pop up. Was overrun by stray cats when we last visited.

We’re in Positano right now and this place feels like it belongs on a postcard. Crazy nice.

Pompeii and Herculaneum tomorrow.

nice!

go down to the beach and (when facing the ocean) walk as far left as you can, past the private pool. there should be a bar tucked into the rocks. they serve beer and nuts. just walk in like you belong

Just came back after a long month in Europe.

It was one of the best and most emotional trips of the last decade for sure, as i arrived in Paris with my mom and sis and did Biarritz, Saint Jean de Port, Saint Jean de luz, London and came back to Paris.

They returned to Argentina and i stayed in Paris a few more days before going to Cannes, and dived into this madness called Lions. Amazing week. Saw clients, friends, new friends.

im really tired but so happy.

I legitimately had a great idea for a book about this, but it was like 15-20 years ago and I just don't have the motivation or energy for it anymore. It was inspired by a bathroom in Baltimore and was going to be a spin-off of the Tucker Max stories, if you've ever seen any of those.

Sitting in the Denver airport waiting out an hour delay of my flight home. There’s a line of hundreds of people waiting to talk to customer service re canceled flights. Terminal is borderline third world conditions; these people have been here awhile.
